That is a great song with excellent production. I find the rest of the album to be almost entirely forgettable. "Allies" is ok and Nancy has one on there, she sings can't even remember what it's called.
I agree with your list. Your list shows are always so insightful and honest. 👊🏼 Don’t ever feel bad about calling a woman beautiful. These two are the most beautiful and (even more important) talented women ever.
I want to tell you how much I appreciate your group evaluations, especially because the bands you do treat are some of my favs, and also the quality of your honest comments. thanks :)
First sea of tranquility show I seen and hooked me in now watch everyday alone was the first single I ever bought I was 11 the b side was barracuda live at bud ikon Japan blew my mind really got me into music and still superb and man o man are they still amazing great band
@@JCStorm76 very cool. For me "Brigade" is overlooked. The "Heart" album got all the love..but I am also burnt out on much of it. I also think "Passion Works" is an amazing album. It does sound dated now however with the Simmons toms drummer Denny Carmassi was using on the session. If it had real drums..it would have aged much better.
Love HEART. PETE/ stay the way you are ! Love your true emotions/ that’s why I love to watch! 1980 / I graduated. Loved that BEBE Le Strange album. ROCKIN HEAVEN DOWN/ one of my favorites ever. Ann Wilson / my favorite female rock singer ! Tremendous episode
Also. PETE is correct. Those latter albums ( most recent). I play all the time. I think some of you/ may be surprised/. All good. Obviously/ just my opinion!
Pete shows here that he is a human beeing, that certain songs can take you back to some time in your life and let you remember some good things that has happened to you. With age, so comes the ability to get emotional easier. Keep up the good work Pete. Looking forward to your ranking of Camel's albums, my favorite band (if you read my youtube name backwards lol)!
I love Heart but for some reason I did not collect any of their albums growing up (except Heart in '85). So now I need your help, Pete. Squeeze in a Deep Cut Dive with these talented ladies so I can explore their catalog. Keep up the good work. Thanks!
Their first two LP's were at the time mostly what I was listening to. Pat Benatar's early stuff was great as well. I was so hot for both sisters but Ann's Raven straight hair and strong voice I fell in love with. My older sister who has nearly a decade on me bought those first 2 albums in without 77 or 78 as a Christmas present. My sister's GF Nancy was really beautiful and reminded me so much of Ann with that shoulder length raven hair and those eyes. She was a 14 yr olds crush. Her and my sister had a falling out and they never were the same after that. I only bumped into her a handful of times afterwards and I was sad. Really because of how downright close they were. Heart was a great band who I've lost touch with over the years. Nice job. I'll have to check out some of their newer stuff now.
Your ranking of the studio albums/CD's of Heart is cool, hot and spot on! Thank you so much for your review. I appreciate it! I have all of Heart's music and collectables, picture discs, Nancy Wilson's guitar pick with her name on it! I have my own guitar pick too with my name on it. I play guitar, sing and recording my own music! I love Heart ! Ann and Nancy and the guys in Heart are very inspiring! 🎤🎸🎵🥁
The early 80's were a rough time for the band. I seen them play at Great Adventure in June of 84. The concert was free with admission to the park. Back then I thought, "Geez, how the mighty have fallen!" I then saw them in Camden,NJ last Summer and they started the show with "Rockin' Heaven Down"! They hadn't played that live since probably the Bebe Le Strange Tour!! On side a note, I remember buying Magazine in a Juarez, Mx record store in '85. I just wanted it for "Heartless" which was written as "Cruel" on the album. I guess there's no spanish translation for "Heartless"???
Thanks for doing “Heart” albums!!!! 💜💙💜 One of my favorite bands! I was surprised to hear you say “Mistral Wind” was your favorite! That has always been my favorite song by them from the minute I listened to the “Dog & Butterfly” album which I bought because I loved Heart so much and because I heard “Straight On” on the radio!! What a great album 🔥🔥
Right on man. Dog and Butterfly will always be my favorite. Mistral Wind is their Stairway to Heaven. Also, Heart does some of the best covers. Have you ever heard their rendition of Mona Lisa’s and Mad Hatters? Incredible.
Heart list, from favorite to least favorite- Little Queen Dreamboat Annie Dog And Butterfly Be be Le Strange Magazine Brigade Heart Bad Animals Desire Walks On Jupiter's Darling Private Audition Red Velvet Car Passionworks Fanatic No joke, Ann Wilson is my absolute favorite singer. Such power! This woman can and does put the right amount of emotion and attitude in every lyric she sings, and it's always done just right. Phenomenal singer, great songwriter.
80's Heart recorded some of the very best albums in rock history! You should also make a video about ALDO NOVA, his first 2 albums are absolute AOR masterpieces.
Wow, an interresting take. Here's my list: 1. Bigade 2. Heart 3. Desire Walks On 4. Bad Animals 5. Dreamboat Annie 6. Little Queen 7. Dog & Butterfly 8. Passionworks 9. Magazine 10. Private Audition 11. Bebe Le Strange 12. Red Velvet Car 13. Beautiful Broken 14. Jupiter's Darling 15. Fanatic I admit it, I love their "hair" period. What can I say, the top 6 on my list are all so great that not much separates them, really. And 7 through 11 are also pretty damn great in my ears. But thank you for reminding me about the albums after the comeback. I don't think I have listened enough to them, to be honest, so I will give them a few spins really soon. Keep up the good work!
Great ranking Pete, gotta go back and listen to the classics and check out the new stuff, I’m stuck in the mid 80’s stuff from them other than the 70s hits
Happy to hear someone finally give props to the song Mistral Wind. Also Sing Child one of the lesser know rock gems. Roger Fisher with Howard Lees the dream guitar team IMO. Cheers!
I enjoy your rankings, and though I don’t have a collection anywhere near the size of yours I do own A LOT of music. Watching your rankings always remind me of stuff I may have missed and need to add.
@@Aweso1974 Can you imagine how good Magazine would have been if it wasn't for the dispute with Mushroom Records? It would have been their 2nd LP & basically all the best tracks from both Little Queen & Magazine!
@SS88doubleturn ya once the inevitable happened and Fisher left, they were no longer worth listening to. MO. At least we have the core four with their hof lineup
dreamboat annie is my favourite too. such a great record. I love how they play the title track 3 times. an idea that could be annoying but it totally works and makes the album
Been a fan of Heart since they released Dreamboat Annie. Heart wasn't huge in Australia in the early days, but they had me hooked from the first time I heard them. They are an outstanding and versatile band with the greatest female vocalist I have ever heard. Amazing how Ann's voice has held up so well over the last 44 years.
Was upset that some favourites are not ranked higher: Heart (ST), Jupiter's Darling, Brigade... but came to realize that they simply don't have any weak albums! Even Desire WO has the the ripping metallic Black on Black ffs! Little Queen is my fave, love all periods. Just love these mighty disciples of The Zep! Top 5 or 10 band for me all day long. Pretty good list Pete.
I agree that the early Heart records were the best. 'Bebe La Strange' is one of those albums that's excellent for early summer. I really enjoyed 'Brigade' and 'Desire Walks On'. I'd put them as #6 and #7.
Well done Pete nice ranking. Dreamboat Annie is a number 1 for me as well. It's an all time classic. Saw these ladies last summer and dam they can still put on an awesome show. Ann's voice is still amazing!!
I definitely like the first two albums the best, I would put Little Queen as my number one. It has an almost Zeppelin vibe. Dreamboat Annie would be a very close second. I agree no stinkers in this catalog. I saw Heart in concert a couple of times in the 70's once was with the Climax Blues band as the opener. I don't remember who opened the second time I saw them. They were fantastic shows.
I remember back in 1977 calling into my local AM radio station, during the day, to request they play Barracuda . They told me they could not play it now because it was a night time song. Too rockin' for the daytime I guess. Ha ha
I remember my parents bought the cassette to Bad Animals when it came out in 87, so that was probably my first I ever heard, but I do agree with your top 3 as those albums are just amazing!
I think I completely agree but reversing the first and two. Dream boat Annie #2 and Little Queen is#1 for me. Haven't heard their last two releases though. I will check them out.
Number one Dreamboat Annie good choice. That song Dreamboat Annie is beautiful. They knew how to do ballads and they knew rock tunes and the blend of the voices that guitar work by Ann Wilson who doesn't get enough credit for her guitar work. Really stellar. Thank you for showcasing female rock and roll band.
Hi Pete and Community! I love the track Magazine: beautiful, absolute charming vocals, and the band behind Ann voice it's just evocative, "atmospheric" ir I can say. Underrated song for me.
Great ranking. I recently pulled my Heart albums out for a listen. Each album is packed with so many great tunes. I’m missing more albums in my collection after I watched though this and I’m going to have to add some.
Hi pete tony from the uk here love your channel. Did you ever do the italian prog special you mentioned cant find it on your playlists. Anyway i know youre a massive kiss fan surprised that wasnt one of your first ranking the albums (you may be surprised the elder and unmasked are high on mine (i think unmasked is on a par with the top cheap trick albums). Ps on a q&a somebody mentioned horslips, with you being a thin lizzy/gary moore fan i really recommend you should check out "the thain" if i know you right you will adore it. I don't know if you like folk but if you do check out the scottish band silly wizard they had some success in the us in the 80's. Not many singers can bri g me to tears but andy stewart (no not that one) can leave me blubbering. Anyway keep up the good work. I just turned 53 yesterday so were on the same page. Take care my friend
Of course I always had a special relationship to Heart - I was a 16 year old female rock fan who was very much alone among the girls around me in my taste for music (Bee Gees, Disco urgh). The Wilson sisters played my music and the only other female artist to do so was Patti Smith. Anyway, they never became one of my favourite bands but through all the years they maintained a quite high level of quality and in recent years even released top albums that stand up to their great early work. Few bands have a discography that is as long as theirs with not a single album that is mediocre. They seem to finally receive the recognition they have earned. 1. Little Queen 2. Dreamboat Annie 3. Bebe le Strange 4. Fanatic (How many bands can release a top album like that after some 30 years+ career?) 5. Dog & Butterfly 6. Beautiful Broken 7. Red Velvet Car 8. Heart 9. Magazine 10. Bad Animals 11. Desire Walks On 12. Jupiter's Darling 13. Brigade 14. Private Audition 15. Passionworks
Thanks for doing this. I like all of their eras as well but favor '76-80. I consider their Greatest Hits album from 1980 as an album in itself. Still great live!
I'm not the biggest Heart fan but I have the fist two albums and the self titled '85 album and I like all of them. I've also been impressed by recent live footage I've seen of them.
Great choices as usual Pete, I must say as much as I love the earlier stuff the song "These Dreams " will always remind me of a certain heartthrob. Best chick rockers of all time in my opinion.
Judas Priest/Heart/Joe Perry Project was my first concert '80...kick ass concert, walked out with 2 killer t-shirts (that I wished I still had) and higher than a kite, and I hadn't even smoked anything..dog and the butterfly does the same for me too, she was a dachshund and her name was Lady💛....i love all the early albums, the 80s ballads not so much.
Love the show's Pete. Heart played at our middle school in Canada, before putting out Steamboat Annie. My favorite is Dog and Butterfly and favorite song has to be mistral Wind. Thanks again.
Anything that Heart does by Led Zeppelin is awesome!▪️ My top 5 for today▪️Little Queen ▪️Mistral Wind▪️Love Alive▪️Black on Black▪️Tell it like it is▪️💖
Dame Pete, you really are cranking out the videos! Love the channel bro, Keep crankin' them out! Dreamboat Annie is my favorite as well! Awesome album!
Dog and Butterfly, for me is their masterpiece everything is just perfect on that album an absolute classic. Little Queen probably right behind it. Even though I knew about the band, it wasn't until the 1985 hit album that I became a bigger fan and especially a Nancy fanatic. Is she dreamy in that What About Love video, or what. Very underrated singer, I tend to prefer albums featuring more of her leads (Strangers of the Heart and I Need the Rain surely two of the best). Also think, if Two had been pushed as a single they'd had a huge comeback hit there, alas not to be though it's still recent enough to go for it.
I love the earlier albums. The reason that I haven't dug in as much with the later stuff is due to having multiple versions of the same albums out. For example, Red Velvet Car has extra songs on some import editions and they've done this with most releases since 1993. The Road Home in Japan had one of the songs switched out with the domestic version even though the discs would've held both. The EU version of Jupiter has a couple of extra bonus songs but I didn't find out until I had bought the US release. The iTunes release actually originally came with a different bonus track. Fanatic came in three different versions with the standard, the Best Buy exclusive with three bonus songs (which I was able to find) and the Japanese version which dropped the Best Buy stuff but added live Led Zeppelin covers. There are other examples of Heart doing this and it drives me nuts.
I own all their albums and agree, difficult to rank. My personal list is: 1. Dog & Butterfly 2. Bad Animals 3. Dreamboat Annie 4. Heart 5. Jupiter's Darling 6. Little Queen 7. Magazine 8. Bebe Le Strange 9. Red Velvet Car 10. Desire Walks On 11. Passionworks 12. Fanatic 13. Private Audition 14. Beautiful Broken 15. Brigade
Can't argue with the top five picks cos it's mirrors my onnwn. I was into Heart from Dreamboat until Bebe, then I started working, my music preference changed... and I never went back to them for ages, til the late 2000s. A younger office colleague was into their 80s stuff, Bad Animals onwards and he never heard of their early stuff. We constantly kid each other for being opposite side of the spectrum about the same band... 😬
I've been longing for you to do a review of the albums of one of the greatest female-fronted band of all time! As an 80s kid, i was introduced to this awesome band via their smash albums "Heart" and "Bad Animals" (which is still my sentimental fave LPs from them and well within my top 5 Heart album). "Dog and Butterfly" (tho regrettably a short album) for me is still their best. But great review on their catalogue.
I'm the same way about Dog and Butterfly, Soul of the sea too, also Dreamboat Annie reprise is amazing. Little Queen great song, the list goes on and on. Soul of the sea still has a soft spot for me because it was the song I was getting into when I was massively in love with a girl in the mid 80's. I know they're huge fans of Zeppelin and you can definitely hear it in some albums.
I was a fan of the band back in the 70s, but they lost me around the time of Private Audition. I did get to see them live in Pittsburgh during the tour for that album, and the band could certainly bring it live. At that time they had Denny Carmassi on drums and Mark Andes on bass. Also, a newcomer by the name of John Cougar was the opening act. He was good too.
Dreamboat Annie has to be #1. But you always raise awareness for something I passed over; need to check out Fanatic and Beautful Broken. And hey, how about showing off your dogs?
I own only five albums from them. I need to listen to their other albums too. 1) Little Queen - The emotions on this album make it my number one. "Cry to Me / Go One Cry" is the best ending ever! "Barracuda", "Love Alive", "Treat Me Well", "Dream of the Archer" - 10/10 2) Dreamboat Annie - No bad or even mediocre songs. "How Deep It Goes" beats even classic songs "Crazy on You" and "Magic Man". "(Love Me Like Music) I'll Be Your Song" is very beautiful! The album artwork is just iconic! One of the most beautiful pictures in the world. 9.5/10 3) Heart - The first Heart album from me. It is "a sell out" but the most of the songs are killing., especially "If Looks Could Kill" - the power of the vocals and lyrics could crush any cheating man. 9/10 4) Brigade - The songs are mostly about love but is there anyone who doesn't love "All I Wanna Do Is Make Love to You", "I Didn't Want to Need You", and "Stranded"? These girls are some of the best vocalists in the world. 8.5/10 5) Bad Animals - "Alone" is my favorite Heart song - although it is a cover from I-Ten. So perfect that even Celine Dion wasn't able to get anything near as great. "Who Will You Run To" and "There's the Girl" are also highlights. I don't like the title song, I just find it weird. 8/10
I love Most Heart albums Pete..... My top 10 Here we go- Jupiter darlings (worst) Red velvet car Passion works Private audition Beautiful broken Magazine Dog and butterfly Babe le strange Heart Brigade Bad animals Fanatic Desire Walks on Little Queen Dreamboat Annie (the best)
My top 5: 1. Dog & the Butterfly 2. Little Queen 3. Dreamboat Annie 4. Jupiter's Darling 5. Heart But their boxed set, which has a bunch of rare tracks, is also really good.
My Rated Heart Albums: 11) *Private Audition* 10) *Magazine* 9) *Dream Boat Annie* 8) *Babe Le Strange* 7) *Dog & Butterfly* 6) *Desire Walks On* 5) *Bad Animals* 4) *Heart - (1985)* 3) *Passionworks* 2) *Brigade* 1) *Little Queen* Heart is one of my favorite bands of all time. Definitely in my top 10. I have seen them in concert once, back in 1987 for their *Bad Animals* tour. Although I haven't really listened to anything they've recorded since 1993's, *Desire Walks On.* So I can't rate their albums/CD's after that one...
Appreciate the Heart talk. I have first 3 lp"s and still love Heart. Dreamboat, the second with Barracuda, Dog&Butterfly, and then I skip to Heart. So, after seeing this video, I think I want Bebe la strange, and to try Fanatic. It is good music throughout the catalog, can't go wrong.
Sorry "Heart purists" but I've always loved their 80s period along with their 70s period. I love the Heart album. For all the pop and power balladry, to these ears songs like If Looks Could Kill, The Wolf and Shellshock are among the hardest crunchiest sounding rockers in their cannon. Brigade also has its share of potent riff rock too, so I'll put those right at the/near the top of my list. 1 Heart 2 Little Queen 3 Dreamboat Annie 4 Bebe Le Strange 5 Dog and Butterfly 6 Brigade 7 Desire Walks On 8 Jupiter's Darling 9 Private Audition 10 Fanatic
Same thing for me. Love everything about this band, but I grew up and first heard of them in the 80s. All Eyes from their self titled album is one of my favorites, along with If Looks Could Kill and The Wolf as you mentioned. Also Black on Black II from Desire Walks, that single song makes me rank that album higher.
Heart’s self-titled album in 1985 is my absolute favorite. Great band!
Yeah people talk badly about it but when it came out many of us played the hell outta it.
Pete, your reaction to describing "Dog & Butterfly" is why we all LOVE music....when a melody and lyric hits you, it's hits you deep.....
Most Under-Rated Heart Song: "How Can I Refuse" from the album: Passionworks. Ann Wilson is a Killer vocalist.
Agree , one of their best tracks !
That is a great song with excellent production. I find the rest of the album to be almost entirely forgettable. "Allies" is ok and Nancy has one on there, she sings can't even remember what it's called.
Passionworks is fantastic,top to bottom

Ann Wilson has to be one of the best female rock vocalists of all time.
I'd say possibly the best.
"Wait for an answer" from Bad Animals,..Ann Wilson's crowning performance !
Fully agree. First time I heard her vocal on this it completely blew my socks off.
I want you so bad, also She is great.
I only know their Dreamboat Annie album. It was so good.
Then if you liked DBA do yourself a favor and listen to Little Queen and Dog & Butterfly. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised
Great ranking Pete, gotta go back and listen to the classics and check out the new stuff, I’m stuck in the mid 80’s stuff from them other than the 70s hits

Was upset that some favourites are not ranked higher: Heart (ST), Jupiter's Darling, Brigade... but came to realize that they simply don't have any weak albums! Even Desire WO has the the ripping metallic Black on Black ffs! Little Queen is my fave, love all periods. Just love these mighty disciples of The Zep! Top 5 or 10 band for me all day long. Pretty good list Pete.
I agree that the early Heart records were the best. 'Bebe La Strange' is one of those albums that's excellent for early summer. I really enjoyed 'Brigade' and 'Desire Walks On'. I'd put them as #6 and #7.
Heart - great band! The Wilson Sisters -so beautiful ❤️❤️great singers ! Very good albums
Well done Pete nice ranking. Dreamboat Annie is a number 1 for me as well. It's an all time classic. Saw these ladies last summer and dam they can still put on an awesome show. Ann's voice is still amazing!!
I definitely like the first two albums the best, I would put Little Queen as my number one. It has an almost Zeppelin vibe.
Dreamboat Annie would be a very close second. I agree no stinkers in this catalog. I saw Heart in concert a couple of times in the 70's once was with the Climax Blues band as the opener. I don't remember who opened the second time I saw them. They were fantastic shows.
Great list. Love the early stuff best. Seen Heart a few times. Going to see Ann in May.
I remember back in 1977 calling into my local AM radio station, during the day, to request they play Barracuda . They told me they could not play it now because it was a night time song. Too rockin' for the daytime I guess. Ha ha
Thats great and magic man awesome songs.
Dog and Butterfly. I love them all.
I remember my parents bought the cassette to Bad Animals when it came out in 87, so that was probably my first I ever heard, but I do agree with your top 3 as those albums are just amazing!
A scene in Sofia Coppola’s first movie; The Virgin Suicides, with Crazy on You - one of the great uses of music in film.
I think I completely agree but reversing the first and two. Dream boat Annie #2 and Little Queen is#1 for me. Haven't heard their last two releases though. I will check them out.
Heart and Bad Animals should have been much higher. Howard Leese really came into his own on those albums. Good list and great band !
Vick Hones agreed
Number one Dreamboat Annie good choice. That song Dreamboat Annie is beautiful. They knew how to do ballads and they knew rock tunes and the blend of the voices that guitar work by Ann Wilson who doesn't get enough credit for her guitar work. Really stellar. Thank you for showcasing female rock and roll band.
this band, much like Journey, is an underrated American rock Classic. Just an amazing collection of works!
❤ 😍 i love 90% of Heart music starting from Dog and Butterfly, Bebe le strange , great time with folk, rock and Led Zepppp sound
Hi Pete and Community!
I love the track Magazine: beautiful, absolute charming vocals, and the band behind Ann voice it's just evocative, "atmospheric" ir I can say.
Underrated song for me.
I have 4 cats, and one of my favorite songs is "Animal" by Def Leppard (RIP Steve Clark)
Great ranking. I recently pulled my Heart albums out for a listen. Each album is packed with so many great tunes. I’m missing more albums in my collection after I watched though this and I’m going to have to add some.
All good. Little Queen my personal favorite, Like the acoustic, mystical vibe on several songs here.
Hi pete tony from the uk here love your channel. Did you ever do the italian prog special you mentioned cant find it on your playlists. Anyway i know youre a massive kiss fan surprised that wasnt one of your first ranking the albums (you may be surprised the elder and unmasked are high on mine (i think unmasked is on a par with the top cheap trick albums). Ps on a q&a somebody mentioned horslips, with you being a thin lizzy/gary moore fan i really recommend you should check out "the thain" if i know you right you will adore it. I don't know if you like folk but if you do check out the scottish band silly wizard they had some success in the us in the 80's. Not many singers can bri g me to tears but andy stewart (no not that one) can leave me blubbering. Anyway keep up the good work. I just turned 53 yesterday so were on the same page. Take care my friend
Of course I always had a special relationship to Heart - I was a 16 year old female rock fan who was very much alone among the girls around me in my taste for music (Bee Gees, Disco urgh). The Wilson sisters played my music and the only other female artist to do so was Patti Smith. Anyway, they never became one of my favourite bands but through all the years they maintained a quite high level of quality and in recent years even released top albums that stand up to their great early work. Few bands have a discography that is as long as theirs with not a single album that is mediocre. They seem to finally receive the recognition they have earned.
1. Little Queen
2. Dreamboat Annie
3. Bebe le Strange
4. Fanatic (How many bands can release a top album like that after some 30 years+ career?)
5. Dog & Butterfly
6. Beautiful Broken
7. Red Velvet Car
8. Heart
9. Magazine
10. Bad Animals
11. Desire Walks On
12. Jupiter's Darling
13. Brigade
14. Private Audition
15. Passionworks
Fallen From Grace...Under The Sky and Cruel Nights from Brigade are AWESOME non-singles.
Thanks for doing this. I like all of their eras as well but favor '76-80. I consider their Greatest Hits album from 1980 as an album in itself. Still great live!
fantastic band, incredible voice. I love Dreamboat Annie and Little Queen !
Heart & Bebe Le Strange: my favourites! REALLY looking forward for Cheap Tricks Top 10 songs! Cheers from Rio
I'm not the biggest Heart fan but I have the fist two albums and the self titled '85 album and I like all of them. I've also been impressed by recent live footage I've seen of them.
Great choices as usual Pete, I must say as much as I love the earlier stuff the song "These Dreams " will always remind me of a certain heartthrob. Best chick rockers of all time in my opinion.
once again Pete, you nailed it. i completely agree with your top 5. Dreamboat Annie was one of my first records back in 8th grade, i still play it.
Passionworks is such an underrated album. But yeah, Annie will always be their masterpiece.
Love the t-shirt Pete!!!
Great rankings! I agree 100% I think "Sing Child" is one of their best songs!!
Judas Priest/Heart/Joe Perry Project was my first concert '80...kick ass concert, walked out with 2 killer t-shirts (that I wished I still had) and higher than a kite, and I hadn't even smoked anything..dog and the butterfly does the same for me too, she was a dachshund and her name was Lady💛....i love all the early albums, the 80s ballads not so much.
I agree those first two are simply outstanding.
Love the show's Pete. Heart played at our middle school in Canada, before putting out Steamboat Annie. My favorite is Dog and Butterfly and favorite song has to be mistral Wind. Thanks again.
Love HEART 💜💜 Like you... My favorites are the same. The early stuff is amazing!
Anything that Heart does by Led Zeppelin is awesome!▪️ My top 5 for today▪️Little Queen ▪️Mistral Wind▪️Love Alive▪️Black on Black▪️Tell it like it is▪️💖
Saw them in August with Joan Jett opening. Wow were they good! (JJ was too!)
Dame Pete, you really are cranking out the videos! Love the channel bro, Keep crankin' them out! Dreamboat Annie is my favorite as well! Awesome album!
Dog and Butterfly, for me is their masterpiece everything is just perfect on that album an absolute classic. Little Queen probably right behind it. Even though I knew about the band, it wasn't until the 1985 hit album that I became a bigger fan and especially a Nancy fanatic. Is she dreamy in that What About Love video, or what. Very underrated singer, I tend to prefer albums featuring more of her leads (Strangers of the Heart and I Need the Rain surely two of the best). Also think, if Two had been pushed as a single they'd had a huge comeback hit there, alas not to be though it's still recent enough to go for it.
I love the earlier albums. The reason that I haven't dug in as much with the later stuff is due to having multiple versions of the same albums out. For example, Red Velvet Car has extra songs on some import editions and they've done this with most releases since 1993. The Road Home in Japan had one of the songs switched out with the domestic version even though the discs would've held both.
The EU version of Jupiter has a couple of extra bonus songs but I didn't find out until I had bought the US release. The iTunes release actually originally came with a different bonus track. Fanatic came in three different versions with the standard, the Best Buy exclusive with three bonus songs (which I was able to find) and the Japanese version which dropped the Best Buy stuff but added live Led Zeppelin covers. There are other examples of Heart doing this and it drives me nuts.
I own all their albums and agree, difficult to rank. My personal list is:
1. Dog & Butterfly
2. Bad Animals
3. Dreamboat Annie
4. Heart
5. Jupiter's Darling
6. Little Queen
7. Magazine
8. Bebe Le Strange
9. Red Velvet Car
10. Desire Walks On
11. Passionworks
12. Fanatic
13. Private Audition
14. Beautiful Broken
15. Brigade
Can't argue with the top five picks cos it's mirrors my onnwn. I was into Heart from Dreamboat until Bebe, then I started working, my music preference changed... and I never went back to them for ages, til the late 2000s. A younger office colleague was into their 80s stuff, Bad Animals onwards and he never heard of their early stuff. We constantly kid each other for being opposite side of the spectrum about the same band... 😬
I've been longing for you to do a review of the albums of one of the greatest female-fronted band of all time! As an 80s kid, i was introduced to this awesome band via their smash albums "Heart" and "Bad Animals" (which is still my sentimental fave LPs from them and well within my top 5 Heart album). "Dog and Butterfly" (tho regrettably a short album) for me is still their best.
But great review on their catalogue.
I'm the same way about Dog and Butterfly, Soul of the sea too, also Dreamboat Annie reprise is amazing. Little Queen great song, the list goes on and on. Soul of the sea still has a soft spot for me because it was the song I was getting into when I was massively in love with a girl in the mid 80's. I know they're huge fans of Zeppelin and you can definitely hear it in some albums.
I was a fan of the band back in the 70s, but they lost me around the time of Private Audition. I did get to see them live in Pittsburgh during the tour for that album, and the band could certainly bring it live. At that time they had Denny Carmassi on drums and Mark Andes on bass.
Also, a newcomer by the name of John Cougar was the opening act. He was good too.
Dreamboat Annie has to be #1. But you always raise awareness for something I passed over; need to check out Fanatic and Beautful Broken. And hey, how about showing off your dogs?
I own only five albums from them. I need to listen to their other albums too.
1) Little Queen - The emotions on this album make it my number one. "Cry to Me / Go One Cry" is the best ending ever! "Barracuda", "Love Alive", "Treat Me Well", "Dream of the Archer" - 10/10
2) Dreamboat Annie - No bad or even mediocre songs. "How Deep It Goes" beats even classic songs "Crazy on You" and "Magic Man". "(Love Me Like Music) I'll Be Your Song" is very beautiful! The album artwork is just iconic! One of the most beautiful pictures in the world. 9.5/10
3) Heart - The first Heart album from me. It is "a sell out" but the most of the songs are killing., especially "If Looks Could Kill" - the power of the vocals and lyrics could crush any cheating man. 9/10
4) Brigade - The songs are mostly about love but is there anyone who doesn't love "All I Wanna Do Is Make Love to You", "I Didn't Want to Need You", and "Stranded"? These girls are some of the best vocalists in the world. 8.5/10
5) Bad Animals - "Alone" is my favorite Heart song - although it is a cover from I-Ten. So perfect that even Celine Dion wasn't able to get anything near as great. "Who Will You Run To" and "There's the Girl" are also highlights. I don't like the title song, I just find it weird. 8/10
you're completely missing Heart's talent and energy if you don't own Dog and Butterfly. Go get it now!
@@EastmanD Completely? Their first two albums are classics. I might listen to the album on Spotify later - if it's there.
@@Rekko82 ok well not completely ! But the albums killer and the first song is recorded Live ! and smoking !
I love Most Heart albums Pete.....

Heart is one of my favorite bands of all time. Definitely in my top 10. I have seen them in concert once, back in 1987 for their
*Bad Animals* tour.
Although I haven't really listened to anything they've recorded since 1993's, *Desire Walks On.*
So I can't rate their albums/CD's after that one...
5 - Magazine
4 - Little Queen
3 - Heart - S/T (1985)
2 - Dog And Butterfly
1 - Dreamboat Annie
Appreciate the Heart talk. I have first 3 lp"s and still love Heart. Dreamboat, the second with Barracuda, Dog&Butterfly, and then I skip to Heart. So, after seeing this video, I think I want Bebe la strange, and to try Fanatic. It is good music throughout the catalog, can't go wrong.
Sorry "Heart purists" but I've always loved their 80s period along with their 70s period. I love the Heart album. For all the pop and power balladry, to these ears songs like If Looks Could Kill, The Wolf and Shellshock are among the hardest crunchiest sounding rockers in their cannon. Brigade also has its share of potent riff rock too, so I'll put those right at the/near the top of my list.
1 Heart
2 Little Queen
3 Dreamboat Annie
4 Bebe Le Strange
5 Dog and Butterfly
6 Brigade
7 Desire Walks On
8 Jupiter's Darling
9 Private Audition
10 Fanatic
Same thing for me. Love everything about this band, but I grew up and first heard of them in the 80s. All Eyes from their self titled album is one of my favorites, along with If Looks Could Kill and The Wolf as you mentioned. Also Black on Black II from Desire Walks, that single song makes me rank that album higher.
Love that whole album (Never, Nobody Home)
Yeah I'm with you man and how hot did ANN LOOK IN THE 80s and what a set of pipes those songs just showcased how powerful her vocals were and are
Heart is a great band. Ann Wilson is one of the top singers. :)
